Understand the stresses you may feel on your big day and how to deal with them.
A wedding day can be seriously stressful, and as the time creeps closer to the event and the pressure builds, fears often cause some serious anxiety. But the problems we imagine are typically a lot less common than you'd expect. And in reality, the stress you're feeling is unjust.
Stress on your wedding day, or in the lead up to your wedding day, shouldn’t be something you experience. Your wedding day should be one of the happiest and most relaxing days of your life.
To try to make the journey to the aisle a lot smoother for you, and to gift you that care-free buzz. We’re going to share three of the major panics couples frequently have, and how you can deal with them. So take a seat, relax, and breathe a sigh of relief as we talk you through how to deal with your big day panics!
Living Up To Expectations
Living up to expectations is a major panic for so many people planning a wedding. Foremost, you want to live up to your own expectations, and you want your wedding to be everything you thought it was going to be. To do so, we’d recommend that you don’t rush into any decisions, and that you take your time with every single detail.
Considering carefully what you and your partner wants, and not what you think other people want to see, will help you no end. You will live up to other people’s expectations by doing things your own way, and creating a look that feels unique. That's impressive.
By trying to please all of the people, all of the time (which is impossible), you'll end up with a bland, personality-less wedding that satisfies noone, least of all you.
Capturing Every Moment, and Then Losing Them
It’s so important to make sure you get a good photographer who's going to utilise the surroundings of your location, and capture all the love floating about on your big day.
But, if the thought of losing all of those photos after the big day is causing you nightmares, then there are simple solutions. Like making sure you have things like antivirus software installed when you're viewing the images, and making backups straight away.
These photos can never be repeated, and you spent a small fortune on them, so it's worth investing a little more and getting yourself some cloud storage, and a hard rive or two. Having printouts of the images is not only nice, but can also work as another backup to your backups! You can create such delightful photo albums online these days, and in creating one you'll stop from relying purely on technology to store your images!
Feuds Ruining the Day
Family disputes and disagreements between friends are common, but you shouldn't have to deal with them on the day of your wedding. The best way to avoid them is to design your seating plan wisely, and place guests that have issues, far from each other. Before the big day, you could even speak to the people you know are feuding, and see if you can either solve the issue, or ask for peace, just for one day!
On the day, however, don’t focus on other people's drama and just enjoy your day. Your wedding will only happen once, how gutted will you feel if when looking back all you can think about is a pair of feuding cousins.
